Grep & print
I just need to print value 12 digit number after the key *MI*. My big concern is the below lines are not fixed format or length so cant cut based on the position.


XSA*00**00**XZ*DA-Paper*30*942411167****MI*010001990802~AEE
XSA*00**00**ZZ*EA-aper*30*94169****MI*010001960802~SDRE*ER
SSA*00**00**CZ*BA-Paper*30*2411167****MI*010001790802~AD*a*
XSA*00**00**ZZ*DA-Raper*30*942167****MI*010001980802~A*c8*
XSA*00**00**ZA*DA-Raper*30*9424111****MI*010001880802~ae*ae

Basically I need the output as
*010001990802~
*010001960802~
*010001790802~
*010001980802~

Thanks in advance
